Berlin Station

Case Study

About the Project

WIREWAX developed the world's first ever interactive 360° video player to work on iPhones (and all devices) with gyro and yet without any requirement for apps or additional software. The entire experience works entirely in standard browsers. This broke down the barriers in place from expensive and difficult to reach audience segments currently in headset and in-app experience dependent environments. To this day, no one has succeeded this project in doing this in an iPhone with video.

The Result?

50.49% interaction rate, leaps and bounds above the industry eMarketer averages of 6.62% for brand content experiences by a magnitude of 7x.

On average, our interacting viewers then spent more than 2.5 minutes spent looking at the overlay content.

40% of the traffic has come from mobile devices that are using our unique, first to market features for iPhone and mobile gyro for 360 - a feature that was a world first and required no additional apps.
